Removing Stubborn Suntan Lotion Stains from Swimming Pool Liners

Keeping your swimming pool clean and inviting involves more than just regular water maintenance – it also requires removing any unsightly stains from pool liner. One common source of staining is suntan lotion, which can easily end up in the pool, causing discoloration and build-up on the liner. Fortunately, cleaning these stains without damaging the liner is relatively easy with a few simple steps.
